In addition, in each first embodiment and the second embodiment, Y ' direction corresponds to first direction, and X ' direction corresponds to second direction, and lyophily row 175 correspond to first order, and lyophily row 176 corresponds to second order.
In the present embodiment, in substrate W, lyophilic regions 173 is arranged independently in island in lyophobic areas 171.Therefore, to description face 18 be coated with functional liquid 53 time, easily can keep functional liquid 53 in lyophilic regions 173.Therefore, it is possible to easily improve the precision of the sectional view when being described sectional view by functional liquid 53 pairs of lyophobic areas 171.Its result is, easily can improve the precision of three-dimensional 7.
In addition, in the present embodiment, in substrate W, gap size Fx and gap size Fy is set to less than 1.25 times of the external diameter from each discharge 33 drop 55 of discharging.Thus, drop 55 be attached to adjacent lyophilic regions 173 each other time, the ink dot that the drop 55 of attachment can be formed easily remains in gap to each other, these lyophilic regions adjacent two lyophilic regions 173.Thereby, it is possible to more easily improve the precision of three-dimensional 7.
In addition, respectively in the first embodiment and the second embodiment, in substrate W, multiple lyophilic regions 173 is respectively along X ' direction and the arrangement of Y ' direction.But the arrangement of multiple lyophilic regions 173 is not limited thereto.As the arrangement of multiple lyophilic regions 173, such as, as shown in figure 20, multiple lyophilic regions 173 can be adopted along the arrangement of X ' direction indentation.Arrangement is as shown in figure 20 called as and is staggered.
In being staggered shown in Figure 20, the arrangement in sawtooth on X ' direction of multiple lyophily row 175 can be regarded as.In addition, in being staggered shown in Figure 20, multiple lyophily row 175 can being regarded as and arrange in the u-direction.U direction is the direction intersected with X ' direction and Y ' direction both sides.
In being staggered shown in Figure 20, compared with the arrangement shown in Figure 16, the interval between two adjacent in the u-direction lyophilic regions 173 can be shortened.Therefore, drop 55 be attached to lyophilic regions 173 adjacent on U direction each other time, the ink dot that can easily be formed by the drop 55 of attachment remains in these gaps to each other, lyophilic regions 173 in adjacent two lyophilic regions 173.Thereby, it is possible to more easily improve the precision of three-dimensional 7.
In addition, in being staggered shown in Figure 20, preferably, lyophilic regions 173 adjacent on U direction gap size FU is to each other set in less than 1.25 times of the external diameter of drop 55.Thus, drop 55 be attached to lyophilic regions 173 adjacent on U direction each other time, two lyophilic regions 173 that the ink dot that can easily make the drop 55 of attachment be formed is adjacent in the u-direction remain in these gaps to each other, lyophilic regions 173.Thereby, it is possible to more easily improve the precision of three-dimensional 7.
In addition, in the first embodiment and the second embodiment, in each substrate W, multiple lyophilic regions 173 is respectively along X ' direction and the arrangement of Y ' direction.But the configuration of multiple lyophilic regions 173 is not limited thereto.As the configuration of multiple lyophilic regions 173, such as, the spiral helicine form being configured to utilize Fibonacci sequence can also be adopted.Fibonacci sequence is following ordered series of numbers: 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89 ....Be expressed as recurrence formula then as described in detail shown in (1) formula.
f 1＝1、f 2＝1、f i+2＝f i+1+f i...(1)
In Fibonacci sequence, represent (f by ordered series of numbers i-1)/(f i+1the angle of) × 360 degree, then along with i number increases, the value of angle is close to golden section angle (137.5078...).
And, in the X ' Y ' face specified by X ' direction and Y ' direction, lyophilic regions 173 is configured on the coordinate (x ', y ') that calculated by following (2) formula, then multiple lyophilic regions 173 can be configured to the helical form utilizing Fibonacci sequence.
x′＝R×cos(θ×i)，y′＝R×sin(θ×i)...(2)
In above-mentioned (2) formula, θ is the value (137.5078...) at golden section angle.In addition, i is the integer of more than 1.In addition, R is represented by following (3) formula.
R = a × ( i ) . . . ( 3 )
In above-mentioned (3) formula, a is proportionality constant, is the arbitrary number larger than 0.
Utilizing above-mentioned Fibonacci sequence, under multiple lyophilic regions 173 is configured to spiral helicine form, be overlapped in the multiple lyophilic regions 173 on the arbitrary straight line in X ' Y ' face, easily can getting rid of the systematicness at adjacent interval to each other, lyophilic regions 173.Namely, utilizing above-mentioned Fibonacci sequence, under making multiple lyophilic regions 173 be configured to spiral helicine form, be overlapped in the multiple lyophilic regions 173 on the arbitrary straight line in X ' Y ' face, adjacent interval to each other, lyophilic regions 173 can be made irregular.
Its result is, in description step S2, even if multiple drop 55 adheres to regularly on substrate W, by the scrambling of multiple lyophilic regions 173, also can easily the situation of the sawtooth (breach) of generation rule on sectional view 165 be suppressed lower.
In addition, in the present embodiment, in description step S2, as the method for coating function liquid 53, a kind of ink-jet method as rubbing method is adopted.But rubbing method is not limited to ink-jet method, distribution (dispense) method or print process etc. can also be adopted.But, due to the arbitrary position adopting ink-jet method easily the functional liquid 53 measured arbitrarily can be coated substrate W, therefore preferably.
In addition, in the present embodiment, yellow, carmetta, dark green, black and white five kinds of colour-washes are adopted.But the color of colour-wash is not limited to these 5 kinds.Such as, as the color of colour-wash, except these 5 kinds, light greenish blue and shallow carmetta etc. can also be added and become 7 kinds etc., the colour-wash of the arbitrary kind of more than a kind can be adopted.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the active-energy as the solidification for promotion functions liquid 53 adopts light, but active-energy is not limited to light, and such as, this can adopt heat.That is, as functional liquid 53, the functional liquid 53 having and promote character and the Thermocurable solidified by accepting heating can also be adopted.
In addition, in the present embodiment, there is exemplified with arthroplasty devices 5 formation of substrate W, but the formation of arthroplasty devices 5 is not limited thereto.As the formation of arthroplasty devices 5, such as, the formation omitting substrate W can also be adopted.And, in this formation, platform 25 is described there is sectional view 165.Therefore, in this formation, mounting surface 25a is corresponding with description face 18.In addition, in the arthroplasty devices 5 eliminating substrate W, platform 25 is corresponding with drawing desk.
